' pastor denied the right of young Mr. H demon to speak, as he was neither a mi her of the church nor a pewliolder. Mr. Henderson, Sr., spoke up, saying Iiis son was a pewliolder. Tho presiding officer decided that the meeting should determino by vote whether or not Mr. Hendei-aon, Jr., should speak. The vote was in the nega- Tiie Henderson party nominated Mr. Byron Conkling as one of tlie trustees. The opposition put up Mr. Riindall and igustus Taber, and, after a stormy time, ■cted them. Votes wore challenged from every quarter of tho ohurcli. A young woman objected to Mre. Marshall’s vote because slie had not paid her pew rent recently. Mrs. Marahall, who is 80 years • age,' wealthy, and oile- uftlTe leaMiiig' embers of the church, was permitted to vote, however. The votes were counted amid gre.at confusion.

The walls should not serve as hill-boards for tho ad­ vertisements ot circuses or other shows, for notices of auctions, or for prints or publica­ tions other than those designed by the com­ pany, for the benefit of its patrons. Even for religious or other beneficial purposes, there is no more propriety in using the walls of a railroad station, than of any other building erected at private cost, tor semi- public use. “ The only way to prevent disfigurement is for tho company to assume the absolute control, as Mr. Stevenson has done, and rightly done.” An English author! d Denmark, whose autonomy is substan­ tially guaranteed, do not need so muoli for and do not givo it. Switzerland pays education, within a few cents she does for war, Denmark lot givo it. Switzi 1 much for education, within pays twice i tion.
